    Shop made porch flooring with hidden fasteners

    Are you talking about my fingers? I'm not so much as losing the hangnail they're all there including everyone of my fingerprints that are very susceptible to a big 10 inch wide Sander. Some read about woodworking some write about woodworking some actually do woodworking. We need them all
